What did you think of this episode?

If you've ever thought about becoming a published author, today’s episode will dispel some myths you might believe to be true.

Welcome to Your Best Writing Life, an extension of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference held in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of NC. I’m your host, Linda Goldfarb. Each week, I bring tips and strategies from writing and publishing industry experts to help you excel in your craft. I’m so glad you’re listening in. During this episode, you’ll learn about several Publishing Myths that hold you back from becoming a successful author.

My industry expert is… W. Terry Whalin. Terry understands both sides of the editorial desk--as an editor and a writer. He worked as a magazine editor whose work has appeared in more than 50 publications. A former book acquisitions editor for several publishers and a former literary agent, Terry is an acquisitions editor at Morgan James Publishing.  He has written more than 60 books through traditional publishers, covering a wide range of topics, from children’s books to biographies and co-authored works. Over 20 years ago, Terry wrote a diet book in eleven days called First Place by Carole Lewis, which has sold over 100,000 copies. Terry’s newest book is 10 Publishing Myths, Insights Every Author Needs to Succeed (Morgan James Publishing).

We cover several myths found in Terry's book during today's episode. You can get your physical copy for only $10 (includes shipping), plus this special comes with over $200 worth of free bonuses. Get Terry's special offer at publishingoffer.com
